Rebuilding a neglected Land Rover Defender 90 - Part 4

[@UKIP]

I've just watched all you videos in a couple days - you deserve a much bigger viewership. Keep it up!

[@jbuckley2546]

Same. Channel was recommended and watched the lot in a day. The channel will undoubtably get pretty big. Loads of ppl love land rovers and his projects and level of detail are awesome.

[@rockinghorsesciencemechani6020]

@@jbuckley2546 TRUE. It's the lads manner and just pity about the horrible ad's. ☹

[@rockinghorsesciencemechani6020]

And the l.e.d strobing it's hiney off.

I’m glad to say I’ve been here since day one this guys gonna go big

[@richardjute4947]

you have the best job ever, i love defenders

[@Menditman2014]

I’m the same, but we could both change our jobs and do it. Just need a few bob behind you👍

[@andicog]

Love the videos but please ask your assistant if he knows how the hospital get metal out of your eyes? If a magnet won't work it's picked out using a needle while a nurse leans on the back of your head as your chin is in a Y rest. Goggles stops all this pain and misery. Believe me. 👍

[@u2kjib4cjkqn]

Been there and had done with the needle in the eye

[@My-Landy-Life]

In Denmark they use a drill, I have tried it a few times.

[@Grupp87]

Rebuilding Defenders to last another lifetime. Doing God's work! Inspiring to watch. Keep up the amazing work!

[@JohnInSale]

New here and enjoy the vids and jobs 👍🏻 But please wear safety glasses, air lines and grinding etc with that rusty metal is an accident waiting to happen. I know being young is like being invincible, but you only get your eyes once 👀🙏🏻 Also paper masks would be an idea, look at your skin, that’s going into you lungs D’oh !!! #StaySafe 💙

[@paulojoaquim8650]

This series makes me so happy. Nice work! Live little defender. LIVE!!

[@jglp9061]

How the hell has this channel only got 50k subs, just found it and have binge watched hours of videos, some of the best content out there!

[@Lawrence-ui1hv]

I love the progress on this Defender. I'm totally engrossed in these video's!

[@dogpanion5524]

Rusty metal in the eye would be the end of this productive day guys. Doing 1/4 on mine next week, so interesting video. Cheers!

[@craigbroad4860]

ahhhh... the olde 'safety squint' :D

[@V8guy3500]

Your are a very natural presenter and clearly have a knack at this , your channel is one to watch I’m expecting a massive following of your stuff ,great work dude 👌🍺

[@juicemotors]

Thank you so much 😊

[@seancuffe264]

cracking job, looked like the old owner backed it into the sea every night

[@Editsjidanger]

This is the best Defender channel on you tube, nice work

[@jackmartin9008]

nice job! and nice to see a landy without chequer plate coverups too.

[@cmadk3423]

That came out great. Hard to believe the rust was so bad on the cross member and the chassis rails were solid, you were definitely lucky there. I just gave up on my 30 year old jeep because the chassis was so rotten.

[@paulrichter3081]

really enjoying the vids. nice to be able to go through the whole series, bit like watching a box set! 😁 Really impressed with your knowledge and abilities. looking forward to watching the rest of the series.

[@nickspence-thomas2970]

Just started watching these, love the detail and results…keep doing them please 🙂👍🏻

[@georget1932]

Good job! That spider was one of the false widows that are everywhere now. Nasty little bits form them.

[@chasthechippie4662]

Great video Nothing sounds better than a TD5... had a disco and still miss that sound

[@WhiskeyGulf71]

Josh, Bros just called, they like your hair cut 😂 🎵 when, will i, will i be famous ?

[@MARTINA-gc3tq]

Thank goodness we have two eyes as the likely hood of the reciprocating saw snatch or debris flying is odds on only taking one eye out at a time.

[@Groatgrabber2012]

Once again a great video of something I need to sort in the near future. I think I would have replaced the diesel pump while I had the tank out as it’s a pain to drop it again to do it. 👍

[@ianchambers2731]

This is Josh- he might better at welding, but he doesn’t like reversing on camera 😂😉. Takes it for a spin round the yard - I thought he’d nicked it! Great job - looking forward to the next part of the transformation 👍

[@davidwhite4915]

A fascinating watch and your welder is so good. Nice video

[@gregorydobson4307]

Defenders always catch the water spray from the back wheels and rot out. I always put an inner M udflap on inside of X member to help. Great channel by the way

[@humanbean123]

Really enjoying the videos showing steps forward with this build! Looking forward to the next video, and of course progress there after! Nice work! :)

[@ewanstewart8011]

You look like you sleep in a hedge row with your lockdown hair 😂. Any chance of a fleet roundup,including mods, for any new subscribers?

[@BUST2BUILT]

Great job mate, looks better than factory. We are about to do the long leg rear replacement on the 110 (same part as the galv one you received) as soon as FedEx hurry up and deliver it. We love a TD5 👍🏻

love watching this from Australia miss my defenders big time best on Utube and thats not a bloody spider lol

[@daniel.mcleay]

I’m from Australia to and was going to comment the same that is not a spider 🕷 that’s just a little black blob. Anyways love the videos

[@bc1466]

Glad I checked, didn’t think I’d be the only Australian going to comment on the spider! Haha

[@TheSnags]

I’m Australian too that’s 4 now haha!!

[@richardcallison1637]

Loving where this is going👍 can’t wait to see more progress!👍👍

[@LRDefender1968]

Hi Mr Juice, Another awesome episode, so glad I found your channel and subscribed, it’s so educational for me to watch someone who knows what they are doing and to understand how my Defender is actually put together. Great content, keep it coming buddy! Kind regards Tony

[@joselara1000]

Hi!! Grettings from ecuador, south america!! Your skillz are amazing, congrats!! From: the hard-top 4x4 club portoviejo, manabi

[@telfordpetrolhead]

Another great video, the Epsom green was popping in the sun

[@grahamwest1079]

Another great workshop video, good effort and well done for knowing your welding limitations and getting your mate whose a pro fabricator to do the welding. Just one tip get yourself some sun cream your looking a bit pink 😉

[@paulsehstedt6275]

I enjoy following your work! Well done!

[@daz21]

yet another cracking video buddy loving the hairstyle pal 😂😂😂what a difference taking off the old crossmember and putting on the new one keep up the good work and looking forward to the next one bud 👍👍💪🏼💪🏼

[@shropshireladoutdoors743]

Good base for whatever you are going to do next looking forword to the build

[@SuperSteveed]

Nice job just done mine, what have got myself into is exactly what I said to myself as well😉

[@jamesscanachi446]

Good work! Your hair reminds me of Martin Gore. Solid!

[@welster716]

Another top job.. 👍 Keep the standard alloys though, they totally suit the Defender!

Exact same time you asked about his hair I was think I hope he got a reciept for that snip 😂😂 love the video as usual!

[@juicemotors]

😂😂 thankyou!!

[@TylerDurdan241]

I'd have been tempted to put some sealant between your new chassis member and those 'rust away' rear mudguards. Great videos thank you very much for posting

[@EsBeeQue]

First time watching your video! You've got a new sub here just because I love Defenders and also car restoration...brilliant job bro. 👏

[@jamesb8467]

Cerakote makes a ceramic based back trim restorer that would work well on the flaps and spare wheel carrier. It’s good for 200 washes as well. I’ve had it on my Land Cruiser for 6 months and counting with no fade yet.

[@ramarover]

Lovely 90, enjoying the videos!

[@matthubbard6313]

I'd love to have a run down on those Disco's they look amazing.

[@rustandoil]

Good work 👍.... I'd have put some wax protection between those mudflap brackets and the crossmember though 😉

[@scldma114]

Great video, great job. And oh, about the spider, I would have killed it, I really, really, appreciated you did not. I guess is important to notice and praise when someone is acting better than we would. 🙂👍🏻

[@thomasbarber2217]

Great video mate. Would love to see some videos of these rigs out on the tracks!

[@juicemotors]

Hey great idea!! I’ll make sure we get some content! Thanks for watching!

[@anassk8]

Nice tatoo on your friends forearm "Family Forever" written in arabic !

[@teamidris]

If you are thinking of doing this, really test it all out with a hammer first. It can go either way. It might be bad further forward, or the exact opposite :o) This one is really good, I would have grabbed some 3mm steel sheet and only replaced the middle section. Outriggers are fine, the top is fine. Pop some tubes in for the hitch and weld on some tow hooks. Also, personal recommendation is Old Man Emu shocks. They have decent sized rods. They are so good I just sold mine for half price second hand. Decent :D

[@dieselbushcraft1299]

That was a pity about the galvanised section. I’d love a 90 pretty much like it is including those wheels, still think those are the best looking landy wheels.

[@Dogewithlightsaber]

Loving this channel, keep it up!

Nice job Love Defenders

[@ian082008]

Really enjoying the videos

[@Cabsorx]

Super video! But I'll join the choir: safety glasses please :) Interesting green disco 2 you had in the background. Would love to see what'll happen with that. Got my hots for a 2003 disco 2 currently on sale in my neighborhood. But the engine head on is cracked - wonder if you have any idea on how bad that is to change? Your head swap on this defender seemed to be somewhat extensive for a hobbyist... Though you seemed to manage it easily... Twice ;)

[@richm6765]

If your pals a pro welder he should know better than to fill that massive gap with weld, especially on something that is meant for towing and taking heavy loads. He should have cut it back to good metal and plated it properly, and turned the welder up a bit too.

[@kevanharding9716]

Always look forward to your vids .

[@u2kjib4cjkqn]

Great videos ,just built my own pit have 2 defenders and do all the work on them.could do a bit help with mapping my turbo GTB2260VK not your usual hybrid.

[@Menditman2014]

Exactly the job I need to do, did he weld along the top, I didn’t see that but I may have missed it, good video👍

[@juicemotors]

Mowersandstuff yes sir, 2 seam welds along the carrier brackets onto the top of the crossmember 👍🏻

[@rustynail36]

Dude once you have built your new shop and get more projects done your views will go up. Stick with it mate!

[@juicemotors]

Thank you! 😊

[@rustynail36]

@@juicemotors just a bit of constructive criticism, brush up on editing the videos and your away. You have the right look and content, just editing side needs tightening up dude. Or grab a edited, they don't cost a fortune and it will get shared alot more. Good luck bro.

[@alexmos3344]

Excellent!! Is this a new spare wheel cover or did you refresh it?

[@kevterseasta]

nice one Sam !

[@rockinghorsesciencemechani6020]

Change out all your transmission fluids mate! R380 takes MT94 nothing else. Diffs EP90 or better if you can afford. Not sure about LT230 transfer box ...quote Ashcroft " What oil should I use in my LT230 ? Use a GL4 or GL5, either mineral EP80/90 or synthetic EP75W90" above applies for final drives too btw. GL5 is good stuff. Do a video showing how filthy the gear oil gets!

[@1996BulletProof]

I like thathe didnt squash the spider aha my guy

[@Metisse66]

That's pretty much how I look this lockdown - five weeks cleaning and painting a chassis is no fun.

[@neilwipperman3025]

Good vid would like to see one of the under coat rustproofing as need to do mine

[@TheDarrenc1973]

looking good dude....

[@alexdavidson3344]

Good content glad your channel popped up on my recommened. I always though 90 and 110 chassis were the same front and rear and the difference was in the length in the middle/out riggers etc. Whats the difference in the rear crossmember?

[@johngoosen1962]

Definately not, much shorter behind the back wheel

[@CaBeLeRaxD]

[@kt0n530]

I searched so long for somebody, who works on Defenders and shows how to do

[@samhenry1763]

What is the tool you used to put the mud flaps on? Been trying for a while and not had much luck!

[@mochabakampong4709]

Inspired to get my first defender: and you just saved the Spider! following

[@kizzyp2735]

Hi Juiceman ..I did the rear crossmember on my 300dti last year ....waxoiled etc the weld and the internals . A year on very small amounts of surface rust on the bare rear face in a couple of areas . I would appreciate any recommendations as to the best product to paint the face of it to keep it looking nice . Obviously needs to be durable and not act as a future water trap. Even considering just putting coat of waxoil on it ??

[@andicog]

Remove the rust with Bilt Hamber rust remover, paint it with their primer and top coat of your choice. Bilt Hamber ain't cheap but they're the best products I've found.

[@alandavison765]

just subscribed yesterday and binge watching your vids......what are your plans when you move into new shop

[@andrewcollins867]

Nice job what is the underseal you like to use ?

[@caravaggiosaccomplice5103]

No safety glasses? Nice work besides. 👍

[@wardkindts5711]

what do you do whit all these defenders after the build is done, do you keep them or put them up for sale do you make them for customers?

[@CharlieInshawDrums08]

Bit late with the question, I'm re-watching your videos because I enjoy them so much, I thought all defender 90's had the fuel tank under the driver seat? Is this a long range add on maybe or have I confused myself?

[@MrCaspartheghost]

Good to see this as a common problem. But, Why don't any youtuber mechanics wear overalls (coveralls) , I blame Freiburger!

[@jebnutykokot]

Hi, may I ask what brand of turbo cartridge did you use for the replacement in the previous video? My td5 D2 needs also one... some recommendation will help. thanks, keep the good work!

[@southcoastrovers]

Im interested as to what's behind the bumper.... more rust?

[@michaelleigh2446]

great looking truck, where was the oil leak at the start from? whats the end game for it?

[@juicemotors]

It’s from the Rear Main Oil Seal, the gearbox will need to come out so we can replace the clutch assembly and address this leak, it’s not from the engine rebuild. The end game is going to be pretty sick! Can’t wait to show you guys, bringing it back from the dead and then modifying it!
